I cannot find the "Check Syntax" button mentioned in the docs. The interface to DrRacket that I see is: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/racket/original/2X/d/dda4fb4cb3b7484d3c6094139baf733a44a8e451.png) ---

It's the leftmost button among the right-aligned buttons in the toolbar (the one with a check mark). It should show you the label "Check Syntax" if you resize the window to have more width. ![Screenshot 2025-01-14 at 3.33.04 AM.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/racket/original/2X/b/b2e403d2a52e84484243782c4a692804904776aa.png) Yours doesn't have enough width, so the label is hidden. ![Screenshot 2025-01-14 at 3.33.38 AM.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/racket/original/2X/e/e98f125b297482bc3eced876ac3319e1788cad1f.png) ---

Thanks for this. I'll put it in my "gotchas" file.
